Undergraduate Programmes

Students intending to graduate must:

  1. choose a topic, checking the requirements
  2. submit the application for admission to the final examination, verifying the curricular/temporal requirements
  3. deliver the final dissertation in the prescribed manner

Students may also choose a topic that has not been dealt with in a specific examination as long as it is part of a broader topic on which they have passed the examination. Please refer for further details to the Faculty Guide.

In order to obtain approval for the topic, it is necessary to fill in the form available on the site in the section Forms and submit it for the professor's signature.
The student may also choose a topic in a subject that has not been the subject of a specific examination on his part provided that it is part of a broader subject on which he has passed the examination.   

The topic of the final examination must be agreed with the lecturer responsible for the subject.
The topic must be submitted on the iCatt  personal page (Online registrar > Final examination > Application for graduation). Students in the Faculty of Law are not required to submit the form to the Student Services Centre of the relevant seat. 

Please refer to the Faculty Guide for further details on the final examination.

In order to apply for admission to the final examination, you must comply with:

  • submission deadline: at least 45 days before the session. Details in the calendar
  • curricular requirements: no more than 4 examinations in debt (counting does not include 'Theology' courses and educational activities such as internships and supplementary seminars) 

The dedicated function (Online registrar > Final examination > Application for graduation) involves the following steps: 

  • filling in and forwarding the application to the professor for approval;
  • approval or refusal by the professor/lecturer;
  • payment of the graduation fee with Pago PA.

Any changes to the title of the final dissertation, approved by the professor, must be made at the time the application is completed. The title contained must therefore be definitive, as no further changes can be accepted.

The .pdf file of the dissertation must be sent to the professor via the iCatt personal page (Online registrar > Final examination > Submit final dissertation). The professor may request a hard copy if necessary.

The dissertation must be uploaded to the iCatt personal page no later than 15 days before the start date of the proclamation sessions (see calendar).

In the event that computer equipment is needed to support the presentation, the Computer Equipment Request Form must be submitted to the Building Supervisory Office in Largo Gemelli.

Submission of the final dissertation - Instructions for undergraduates

In the event of the inability, communicated close to the date of the exam roll call, of the full professor to chair the commission, a substitute will be appointed to open the roll call on the scheduled date, avoiding postponement of the roll call to a new date.  

 In order to reduce critical situations related to the excessive proximity or overlap of the date of the end of the exam session (last roll call) with the date of the beginning of the graduation session, undergraduates will be allowed to close their careers (understood as the recording of all exams) within 7 calendar days of the beginning of the graduation session, i.e. the time required to carry out the student's career checks. To this end, the examinations calendar will be scheduled so that the undergraduate student can take advantage of the profit appeals according to the following schedule  

Enrolled in the summer session (June-July): the first 2 out of 3 calls (or the first call out of 2, where applicable).  

Enrolled for the autumn session (September-October): the first 2 out of 2 calls.  

Those enrolled for the special session (December-April): the first 2 out of 3 appeals (or the first out of 2 appeals, where applicable).  

The last call of each session may also be used only if the examination is recorded within 7 calendar days of the start of the session. 

Undergraduate students who fail to graduate in the call for which they have applied for admission to the final examination must notify both the professor/supervisor and the Student Services Centre of the relevant seat.
Notification to the Student Services Centre should be made by writing via the iCatt Request for information form under Lessons, Exams and Final Examination > Final Examination.

For a subsequent graduation session, a new application for admission to the final examination must be submitted with a €16 stamp duty and a receipt of payment of the Undergraduate Contribution.

Graduating students will receive the convocation exclusively via their iCatt personal page approximately 10 days before the scheduled graduation date (Online registrar > Final Examination section).

The following criteria are applied for the calculation of the final mark:

BASIC COUNTING

The grade average is obtained by dividing the sum of the marks (expressed in thirtieths) of all the examinations taken (excluding 'Theology' examinations and any supernumerary examinations) by the number of examinations taken. 30-hour courses count for half an examination.
Consequently, the grade for 30-hour courses’ examinations is taken into account for a value of 0.5 for the purposes of the average.

 
(Ex. 4 examinations with 60-hour courses + 1 examination with a 30-hour course; if in all the examinations the mark obtained was 30/30, the average would still be 30/30: in fact, their sum would be reduced to 135, which would, however, be correspondingly divided by 4.5 for the purposes of admission to the graduation examination and the calculation of the corresponding average).  
 
The average in thirtieths obtained in this way is converted into 110ths by multiplying the value obtained by 11 and dividing it by 3 (30 cum laude is counted as 31).

 

 
FINAL EXAMINATION MARK

0 to 4 points;
up to 8 points in the case of a dissertation of particular commitment to the subject matter and value for the method.

 

 

ADDITIONAL BONUS CREDITS

 Students who have obtained (by means of supernumerary examinations or other activities accredited by the Faculty) a number of credits in excess of 180 for a degree programme and 300 for an integrated five-year/six-year degree programme, will be awarded an increase in the basic mark (expressed in 110) of 0.1 points for each additional credit (up to a maximum of 10 credits).
